Isn't a copy of Hourou Musuko worth even that little to you?

Not when I take the length of the series into account. If they were hardcover compilation books, I'd be on it, but isn't is just volume one?

Only manga I have in hardcover are Trigun because it's two books, since they combined them for the hardcover edition, and Q-ko-chan, because it's an extremely short series and only the first volume was released in hardcover anyway.

I find hardcovers a tad bulky for my tastes anyway, prefer paperbacks since they're easy to carry around and take less shelf space.

Testimony 2 by Neal Morse! It's one of the first purchases I made as soon as I got my new job. I haven't yet listened to the album--it's a concept album, so I'll need to sit down for a good amount of time to listen to it straight and absorb it--but what I've heard is amazing.


Morse has been edging toward prog metal lately, and it seems he's now reconciled it well with his prog rock roots. This album is much less heavy than, for example, The Door, but still has an edge.

Speaking of prog, I also purchased Train of Thought by Dream Theater. Not too bad, but not as good as I'd heard. I think it's in my bottom half of Dream Theater albums, which doesn't put it in good company. But it's still significantly better than Systematic Chaos or Black Clouds and Silver Linings, their two most recent albums. Those left a sour taste in my mouth.

I also just recently got introduced to Fountains of Wayne and bought their first three albums. Pretty good stuff.

Back to the topic: I bought Hangover on DVD yesterday. I wanna be a part of the wolfpack too.

Arrange music for the Etrian Odyssey III Super Arrange Version -> Get up to the worst stratum music in the game -> Make it good by combining it with the best stratum music in the game

Not sure how I feel about this. Of course I would have preferred two separate tracks.

You could've bought the regular OST, with two versions of both tracks..
